“That’s right. I am the friend who died for you, Jurgen.” What did Jurgen feel when he saw his best friend? Remorse. Guilt. Happiness. “You’re alive. You are… alive.” Crying, Jurgen went close to Gaston. He held his shoulder, as he wanted to make sure that this is not an illusion which he usually saw every day. “I am so happy. So happy!” Jurgen cried out loud. His knees gave in, and he knelt on the ground, lowering his head. When Gaston saw it, he felt the pain inside his chest. Gideon was right. Jurgen regretted everything and he was willing to end his life for Gaston. “Sorry, Gaston. Please, forgive me,” Jurgen cried, kissing the floor. Gaston only looked down at him. “I was wrong. I gave up our friendship just for my greed. I… I deserve to die, Gaston.” Gaston knew Jurgen was serious because he did end his life just to turn back time. “I thought that if I have your life, if I became rich, and if I got Divine, I will be happy,” Jurgen added. “But no. Ever since you d
Gaston and Edgar hung out at the rooftop of the apartment building where Edgar was living.Looking at the bright City, they drink beer together.“It’s fortunate that my father didn’t take you to prison,” Gaston said to Edgar.Edgar glared at him.“I thought I am going to die while his guards were chasing after me. Be thankful that you are my friend.”“Yes. Thank you so much, Edgar.”“Huh! As long as you know.”The two of them took sips on their beers.“So, what is your plan now? You talked to Jurgen and stopped his death. But you still have one day left. Do you have another plan?”‘If I will go back to the present, I might as well learn more things in this time that will help me,’ Gaston thought.“Edgar, you still following the economic reports around the world, right?”“Of course! Even if I am living like this, I am still hoping that someday, I would be given a chance to start a business again. I have a lot of ideas, especially after the pandemic.”“Then, can you tell me everything t
Griffti, the Chairman of the Hamington Corporation, was working alone in his office. Even though years passed by, he was still having a hard time defeating his disease. Especially after his grandfather died in the hands of his cousin, Divine. ‘Will there be a day when I will feel peace?’ Griffti asked that to himself. Knock knock. He looked at the door of his office. “Sir, it’s me,” his secretary announced. “Come in.” The secretary came in, but he stopped and stood from a great distance. Serving Griffti, the secretary knew that his boss hates close contact. Or else, his panic disorder will attack. “Chairman, I need to report something.” “Tell me.” “You received mail.” “You could have just sent it to my email account.” “N-No. The mail was a real letter.” “Real letter?” “Yes. The man said that I should deliver this directly to you.” Frowning, Griffti responded, “Throw it away. You should be careful and stop receiving suspicious thing from a random stranger.” “Sir, the m
November of 2022.Gaston came back to the present.The $30 million Gideon watch that he bought from Switzerland vanished into thin air. But Gaston didn’t regret anything. Traveling in the future was worth it.Gaston and Jane went back to the country. And once they were back, Jane went to visit Gaston’s father, John.“How was your trip to Switzerland?” John asked to Jane.Jane fidgeted her fingers above her lap. She and Gaston hadn’t told John that they are not in a relationship.“Did Gaston confess to you?” John teased the lady.Jane’s face reddened, and it was enough for John to figure out what happened.“So, are you two dating?” he asked.Jane’s mouth opened and closed several times. She couldn’t say the truth, or lie in front of Gaston’s father.John laughed at Jane’s reaction. He understood that Jane wanted Gaston to tell this to John, and therefore he stopped teasing the lady.“Don’t worry. I will wait for Gaston to tell me everything.”“T-Thank you, Uncle,” Jane said.“Don’t nee
By 31 December 2022, the World Health Organization will inform the world about the cases of pneumonia in Wuhan City, Province of China. It will be the start of the pandemic virus named Covid-19. Gaston cannot stop a virus from spreading. But he found out a way to minimize the casualties it would result. And also, things to do to maintain the economy growth of the world. That was the reason why he offered Griffti to run a huge Medical project with him before November ends. ‘With Hamington’s construction’s ability, it is possible,’ Griffti thought. “But I don’t know why he suddenly thought of that,” he added. Gaston helped him and the Hopkins to grow because he saw the future six months before he died in the past. But now, Gaston has no idea about what will happen in the next months and years. “Gaston is crazy,” Edgar said. Sitting inside the Hour Investment Company, which became their hangout place, Griffti looked at Edgar. “Did Gaston come to you and ask you to do things al
With approximately 30.37 million km2 area, Gaston arrived at the second largest continent in the world – Africa. Gaston saw the breathtaking natural landscapes, rich cultural diversity, and wildlife safaris. Although he was amazed at the country’s beauty, he was aware that he didn’t come here just to take a vacation. Upon his research, Dr. Yuhan was sent to Democratic Republic of the Congo, Maneima to do a research about the waterborne disease around the town. Enduring the very hot weather, Gaston went to the Maneima to find the doctor. He didn’t take his guards with him, as he doesn’t want to appear like a super rich person. Instead, he only too Secretary Lanceil with him. “Are we there yet?” Secretary Lanceil asked to Gaston. Gaston looked back and saw his secretary catching his breath. He wanted to laugh at him. “That’s why I told you that you didn’t need to come with me,” Gaston said while walking. “How can I do that, Sir? You are my boss,” Lanceil answered. Not long after
A deadly virus from an animal affected of SARS and MERS will kill million of people starting from December of 2022. Dr. Yuhan, who heard it, could hardly believe what she just heard. “He’s insane. It is impossible to guess a virus that hasn’t arrived yet,” she mumbled before she heard a kid groaning in pain. Yuhan quickly moved up and examined the kid. "Tumbo lako vipi?" (How's your stomach?) she asked to a kid who showed symptoms of the Waterborne disease. "Inauma," (It hurts) he said while pressing his stomach. The only treatment for this is drinking plenty of safe water, rest, and take over-the-counter diarrheal medication. But... "Una maji, daktari?" (do you have some water, doctor?) he asked with teary eyes. ‘What should I do? I didn't get any today,’ Yuhana worried. "Where should I get some water?" she murmured as she tied her hair up. "Excuse me," a voice called her. When she tilted his head, she saw Gaston. "Do you need some help?" Since the day Gaston came there,
January 3, 2024. The World Health Organization declared that the Covid-19 pandemic, who claimed millions of lives over the past year, is no longer a global health emergency. Thanks to Dr. Yuhana’s research and the cure that Hamington and Hopkin’s Medical Research Corporation revealed. “Dr. Yuhana is there!” “Quick!” When Yuhana walked out of the Medical Research building, many reporters waited for her outside. They were all eager to get an interview to the doctor who invented the medicine that saved millions of people around the glove. Wearing her white doctor’s gown, Yuhana looked at the reporters, which were blocked but the Corporation’s guards. “Dr. Yuhana! How did you come up with the medicine?” “It is true that you and the two corporation foresaw the virus and created the cure before it appeared?” “You created the medicine against a deadly virus within a year! Any thoughts?” “Dr. Yuhana, please answer the question?!” Smiling, Yuhana opened her lips, and everyone shut th
